Most of the time, when thinking about setting up a web radio, the first thing that comes to mind is how it will sound on air, the jingles, which songs to play, how the announcements will be made, and so on. In this way, the managerial thought is completely left to the plastic operation of the radio.
It is extremely important to think about all possible details, including creating a business plan to keep you aligned with your radio's strategic planning.
The station's website should be especially present in this planning, after all, we have to think about a simple detail: “Where will my clients/listeners find my radio?” And the answer is as simple as the question: “On the internet, of course.”
If radio has started to be broadcasted via the internet, it is necessary for us to have at least a basic understanding of strategies for this platform. It is essential to understand the importance of having a website and how to manage it so that it becomes attractive, with updated and original content, in addition to being a project fully adaptable to mobile technologies.
To have a good website, you don't need many fancy things beyond the content it will offer, and an administered site can be an excellent resource for you. It is a ready-made site offered, for example, by BRASCAST, where you can manage everything through a very simple control panel. Content, photos, and everything a good site needs.
The administered site has the same functions as any other you find on the internet; the advantage is that it is fully adaptable for your radio, with a player to stream audio, access buttons for social media, icons for listeners to choose how to listen to the radio, news blocks, featured images, and everything a good radio website should have.
Remember that the website is the gateway for everyone to get to know your radio; it will be the main path to your programming and all your content. Once your listeners understand and come to admire your station, other services will be complements that facilitate access, such as mobile app, players on social media, etc.
Keep in mind that the content of the website is directly linked to your radio's audience. With good SEO methods applied, this content will appear organically on Google, and your station will be found more efficiently in the search engine, right on the first pages.
